The screenshots are taken from www.golem.de
It's possible that DirectWrite font selection is choosing a different face on those pages.
That's interesting, the news text is aliased and the title looks greyscale anti-aliased in GDI rendering.
To capture a log of actual font matching: 1. Create a new profile with default home page 2. Quit Firefox 3. Create a directory C:\temp 4. Add two environment variable settings: a. Open Control Panels > System > Advanced Settings tab b. Add env vars with these settings name: NSPR_LOG_MODULES value: fontlist:5,textrun:5 name: NSPR_LOG_FILE value: c:\temp\textrun.out 5. Open Firefox using the new profile 6. Navigate to the page you want to see font matching info for 7. Quit Firefox 8. Delete the env vars (!!!) This will log the font chosen for every textrun created. Be sure to delete the environment variables when you're done, otherwise you'll be creating huge logfiles as part of your normal browsing. I think the key question here is whether the page renders differently with rendering_mode=2 compared to setting 'gfx.direct2d.disabled' to true and restarting the browser. R2KFoto, which of the two displays are you pulling these screenshots from?

Can't confirm this on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:13.0a1) Gecko/20120210 Firefox/13.0a1 R2KFoto can you test this with latest Nightly, if it's still reproducible for you
Fonts with HW Acc [2] and HW Acc looks identical IMO, only positioning is different
Yes guys 13.0a1 has made it. Thank you.
I think mode=2 is the best for me. Now waiting for FF13 ...
Very odd that you have not identical font output in HW Acc OFF and HW Acc ON [2] or simply you give wrong names ;p but in your case it's not fixed as I see you can also try a new profile without any addons & plugins
I installed 13.0a1 with a new profile without any addons & plugins.
(In reply to Virtual_ManPL from comment #21) > Very odd that you have not identical font output in HW Acc OFF and HW Acc ON > [2] Layout differences may be due to bug 643781.
Tata ... FF17 and Fontrendering is broken. Iam so tired of using Firefox. Now GUI Fonts and Website Fonts are Rubbish.
Can you still reproduce this issue with latest stable Firefox?
